Did some more benching today, stress testing the CPU with an undervolted 8700k. I did not delid the CPU
Processor: i7-8700k
Heatsink/Fan: Noctua L9i
Idle Temp: 31C
Load Temp: 72C ~ 75C
Voltage: 1.088v ~ 1.120v

Fan noises became pretty audible at full load running at ~2300 RPM
Here's my build running Final Fantasy XV on High settings on 3440 x 1440p. It maintained 60FPS most of the time, oscillating between mid 40's to low 50's in combat.
Left is under load, Right is idle with the game closed. After letting the system cool down for a bit. CPU/GPU temps dropped to 31C...
Doing a 2nd S4M build now since I noticed ASrock came out with a mITX board with 3 HDMI outs onboard and 2 ethernet sockets. It's like they literally heard my prayers for a broadcasting board.

For the people doing the Brick-less builds... what combination of power supplies are you using? I noticed the plug connector with the hd-plex ones are too big to put into the S4M case.
Possible to do something like this? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H3S1B5A/?tag=theminutiae-20
Going to have to be after next week, business taxes due this coming Thursday and that's pretty much all I'm working on all week. Planning to use FFXV for the test.
I didn't, it still uses the same...
Originally I thought that OEM fan with the GTX-1080 wouldn't fit, but I realized it was cause the card isn't anchored by an unmoving pci-e slot so I had to bend the riser a little bit more. If you're not using the SSD bracket and opt for m.2 SSD's, you could remove the Zotac from it's casing and...
Just installed Windows 10 onto my build. Debating if I should turn this into Hackintosh or not, but will run a few games to test it's resilience first. The build is whisper quiet in idle right now.

Update on my build... Still awaiting the HDPlex/Power Button and short cables. But decided to turn this into my primary rig and ended up using the Cerberus for our production rig. I got the Gigabyte Aorus Gaming Box which came with a GTX-1080. The fan itself is scraping the case, any...
We're a small Esports Production and Management company. We get contracts sometimes that requires us to move equipment with limited amount of staff so hence this build out. For our flagship event, we actually have 4-5 streams running at the same time, in which we are usually the secondary...
Think I will just play it safe and get the brick on the outside. I checked out the Paladin stuff, love love love it! I was pretty close to doing the exact same build with a Magewell 4x HDMI in there. We use to use a NZXT S340 and literally had everything in the box, but what would happen is that...
Ok, just beginning my build on this, I have a pretty unique use case. I'm using this as a small production rig, mainly capturing video through Thunderbolt 3 connected Blackmagic Ultrastudio HD Mini. A separate ATEM production box is handling all the video mixing, so I only have 1 feed coming to...
New to the forums here and looking forward to learn! I got my Skyreach 4 Mini here in Boston roughly a 3-4 days ago. Packing shows it was sent from Lian-Li Industrial.
Will be my first build of this size, done roughly 100 or so builds with big brand cases so far. Might settle for a 1060 because...
